TXST is launching a project to evaluate ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems used for HR & Finance, and Student Information. Currently, TXST uses SAP and Banner (respectively) as our vendor solution. Our current solution is aging and as our university grows and evolves the need for a modern, scalable, solution is critical.

We are exploring ERP solutions from three leading vendors:

Who is involved in the process?
Stakeholders from across the university are being assembled as our evaluation team. Vendors will also have campus-wide, interactive sessions showcasing each vendor's vision for TXST's future ERP system. Visit our ERP Assessment Team Members page to find out who is representing your area.

Will the entire system be implemented all at once?
No. The HR & Finance solution will be implemented first and then moving on to the Student Information solution.
